  • Failure of Bilateral Diplomacy on Irian Barat (Papua) Dispute (1950-1954)
    FAILURE OF BILATERAL DIPLOMACY ON IRIAN BARAT (PAPUA) DISPUTE (1950-1954) Siswanto Center for Political Studies, The Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Jakarta E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Fundamentally, Irian Barat (Papua) dispute between The Netherlands –Indonesia was a territorial conflict or an overlapping claim. The Netherlands as the former colonialist did not want to leave Irian Barat (Papua) or remained still in the region, meanwhile Indonesia as the former colony denied the Netherlands status quo policy in Irian Barat (Papua). Potential dispute of the Irian Barat (Papua) was begun in the Round Table Conference (RTC) 1949. There was a point of agreement in RTC which regulates status quo on Irian Barat (Papua) and it was approved by Head of Indonesia Delegation, Mohammad Hatta and Van Maarseven, Head of the Netherlands Delegation. As a mandate of the RTC in 1950s there was a diplomacy on Irian Barat (Papua) in Jakarta and Den Haag. Upon the diplomacy, there were two negotiations held by diplomats of both countries, yet it never reached a result. As a consequence, in 1954 Indonesia Government decided to stop the negotiation and searched for other ways as a solution for the dispute. At the present time, Jakarta-Papua relationship is relatively better and it is based on a special autonomy, which gives great authority to the Local Government of Papua. Keywords: the Netherlands, Indonesia, status quo, Irian Barat (Papua), diplomacy Abstrak Pada dasarnya perselisihan Irian Barat (Papua) antara Belanda –Indonesia adalah konflik teritorial atau tumpang tindih klaim. Belanda sebagai mantan penjajah tidak ingin meninggalkan Irian Barat (Papua) atau masih ingin menduduki kawasan itu, di sisi lain Indonesia sebagai bekas bangsa terjajah menolak kebijakan status quo Belanda di Irian Barat (Papua).

    Journal of Intellectual Property Rights Vol 20, July 2015, pp 230-249 Transplantation of Foreign Law into Indonesian Copyright Law: The Victory of Capitalism Ideology on Pancasila Ideology O K Saidin† Department of Private Law, Law Faculty, University of North Sumatera, Medan, Indonesia Received: 07 May 2015; accepted: 29 June 2015 The Journey of Indonesian history has 350 years experience under the imperialism of Netherland and Japan until the era of post-independence which was still under the shadow of the developed countries. The Indonesia became more and more dependable on the foreign countries which brought influence to its political choice in regulating the Copyright Law in the following days. Indonesian copyright protection model which economic goal firstly based on the country’s Pancasila philosophy, evidently must subject to the will of the era that move towards liberal-capitalist. This era is no longer taking side to Indonesian independence goal to realize law and economic development based on Pancasila, especially the first, fourth, and fifth sila (Principle). The goal of law and economic development in Indonesia, regulated under the paradigm of democratic economy is to realize prosperous and equitable society based on Indonesian religious culture principle that can no longer be realized. Pancasila as the basis in forming legal norms in Indonesia functioned as the grundnorm which means that all the legal norms must be convenient and not to contradict the principles of the basic state philosophy of Pancasila. But the battle of foreign ideology in legal political choice through transplantation policy, did not manage to give the victory to Pancasila as the country’s ideology, but to give the victory to the foreign capitalistic ideology instead.

INDONESIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY IN THE NEW ORDER by Sony Karsono has been approved for the Department of Southeast Asian Studies and the Center for International Studies by William H. Frederick Associate Professor of History Josep Rota Director of International Studies KARSONO, SONY. M.A. August 2005. International Studies Setting History Straight? Indonesian Historiography in the New Order (274 pp.) Director of Thesis: William H. Frederick This thesis discusses one central problem: What happened to Indonesian historiography in the New Order (1966-98)? To analyze the problem, the author studies the connections between the major themes in his intellectual autobiography and those in the metahistory of the regime. Proceeding in chronological and thematic manner, the thesis comes in three parts. Part One presents the author’s intellectual autobiography, which illustrates how, as a member of the generation of people who grew up in the New Order, he came into contact with history. Part Two examines the genealogy of and the major issues at stake in the post-New Order controversy over the rectification of history. Part Three ends with several concluding observations. First, the historiographical engineering that the New Order committed was not effective. Second, the regime created the tools for people to criticize itself, which shows that it misunderstood its own society. Third, Indonesian contemporary culture is such that people abhor the idea that there is no single truth.

In this paper, the term "Indonesian coup" is used inter- changeably with "The 30 September Movement ," mainly for the sake of variety. It is technically correct to refer to the events in lndonesia as a "coup" in the literal sense of the word, meaning "a sudden, forceful stroke in politics."

  • Historical Construction of the Indonesian Presidential System: Do People Voices Matter?
    Journal of Governance and Development Vol. 9, 165-185 (2013) 165 Historical Construction of The Indonesian Presidential System: Do people voices matter? Nurliah Nurdin* Institute of Government Internal Affairs, Ministry of Home Affairs, Indonesia *Corresponding author; email: [email protected] / [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the Indonesian politics, with particular reference to the presidential system. During the formation of the country, the framers of the Constitution have mixed understanding on what forms of political system the country intends to adopt, either parliamentary or presidential. The principle debate centers on the legislative and partisan powers of the Indonesian president, expecially the people voice in the strong presidential system. The historical accounts of the early Indonesia suggest that colonialism scars influence certain personalities like Soekarno and Soepomo to favor for an executive- superior system. On the other hand, Muhammad Yamin fears for a strong totalitarian president and thus proposes a legislative-superior system where the power of the president can be curbed by having a system of checks and balances. A series of institutional reforms in the presidential system have also focused on the relationship between the president and other state organs. The paper concludes that the post- democratization era after 1998 provides a more balanced power to the legislature. Keywords: presidential system, executive-legislative relations, Indonesian politics INTRODUCTION The historical experiences and the debate in the forming of a country, by the founders of the nation, were an important part in the political 166 Journal of Governance and Development Vol. 9, 165-185 (2013) process of the country. Historical documents provide an explanation of the entry point to the options of government’s system.
